Apple is selling refurbished iPhone X models starting at $769

Apple is now selling the iPhone X refurbished, and prices start at $769 for the 64GB model. If you want the 256GB configuration, it will cost you $899. This is less than you’ll pay for a new iPhone XS, and it could be a good option if you’re happy with how the 5.8-inch display feels in your hand.

The iPhone X is smaller than the iPhone XR, though even in a refurbished state, it is still more expensive. The XR starts at $749, and for most, it’s a smarter buy. The iPhone X has a dual-camera setup and a more pixel-dense OLED display (compared to the XR’s LCD) on its side. But paying a bit less for the iPhone XR actually puts you ahead in a few ways. There are a few colors that you can choose between, and its A12 Bionic chip is the same that you’ll find in the XS and XS Max. The battery life is also really good, and it only gets better with the new Apple Smart Battery Case.

If you do end up deciding to buy a refurbished iPhone X, it will come with a one-year warranty from Apple, and it will arrive in essentially brand-new condition.

How to install Fortnite on Android

Epic Games launched its battle royale hit Fortnite on Android devices last week with a big catch: it was exclusive to Samsung-made phones for a few days as a way to help market the new Samsung Galaxy Note 9. Now, the exclusivity period appears to be over, and beta invite codes are going out to select users of non-Samsung phones like the Google Pixel 2 XL. If you’re itching to dive off the battle bus on mobile, you might have to hold on just a little while longer: there appears to be a waiting list, just like there was when the game launched on iOS. There’s also a bit of trickiness involving exactly how you get the app because Epic announced it would be distributing the Android version of Fortnite on its own terms . Last week, the app was distributed through Samsung’s app store, and Epic is using its own website and a Fortnite Installer program to distribute the game more widely on all compatible Android devices. (Epic CEO Tim Sweeney said this is basically to avoid paying Google...

Apple’s Siri Shortcuts app now available for iOS 12

Apple is making Siri a lot more powerful in both iOS 12 and watchOS 5. Siri’s new Shortcuts feature is now available to download for iOS 12 users, and it allows iPhone and Apple Watch users to use Siri to step through multistep routines. Shortcuts replaces the previous Workflow app that Apple acquired last year, and is designed to allow you to create custom commands in Siri that launch apps or combine a number of actions in a similar way to IFTTT. You can do things like tell Siri you’re “watching a movie” and the digital assistant will switch your phone to do not disturb. A number of app developers are also launching their own custom Siri shortcuts with iOS 12, which will help the assistant display more information when you create a custom phrase. Citymapper is one of the first big apps with Siri shortcuts support, allowing you to create a shortcut to ask “when’s my next train” and get relevant updates and even platform information. You can download Siri Shortcuts from the App Sto...
